Election Night: Hold The House!

You see to express a curriculum confidence not doing repeat the same way you when you win. Are you under that's sure in your mind? Yes I am. Let me just say why. As I travel across the country, I listened to the v I p s, the volunteers in politics, all the people who are knocking on doors, making calls and the rest, and I say to them, every step you take, every door you knock, every call you make, iver sign, you plant I postcards you've sent, all of

that can make the difference. Because these are late, individual races will be close, and the outpouring of mobilization by various groups, all working together, springs from the quality of our candidates. They're inspired by our candidates, and that's why they're getting out to vote. Well. We think the blue waves going to hit a red wall all across this country. The enthusiasm the President Trump and I are seeing he saw here in Montana just a short while ago, I

saw today all across this country. I think it is all being driven by the results the President Trump and our partners and Congress have been able to deliver. I think the American people are stepping up. There's upping forward. They're saying, we want to see more, more commitment to our military, more jobs, more growth, more tax relief, more

conservatives on our courts at every level. And they know that means that we need to renew and even grow our majorities on Capitol Hill, and people are turning out to do just that. Welcome to the buck, Sex and show everybody. Two very different assessments of how tonight's gonna shake out. Election night in many ways, the most exciting and most boring day in politics. Exciting because there's an election. Boring because we have to hear about all day how

there's an election. It's he turned out some of his coverage. It's like, Hey, what's going on over there? Phil, Oh, there's a line of people. You can only see four of them behind me, but the line stretches around the block for all this vote. I oh my gosh, hey, let's part. The early voting number is not gonna tell us who's gonna win. But really interesting back to you, Sally, you know it's there's a lot of that going on here. Um and I I can tell you you know, the

the the races that matter. And by the way, I'm gonna be at at hill dot TV tonight which you can also watch it on Facebook. I'll be there. It will be a lot of libs on the show. To loove some great conservatives. I believe my friend Rahem's gonna join. Uh, we're gonna have on Charlie Kirk from Turning Point USA. We're gonna have on Armstrong Williams. We're gonna have on a whole bunch of conservatives too. But we have a lot of libs, so just be prepared for that. But

that's tonight from eight eastern to midnight. I'll be joining obviously as soon as I finish radio. And you can check us out there if you like. It's totally free and you can watch however you like. Uh, it's we're on Facebook, will be streaming on YouTube. Just go to The Hill on YouTube on Facebook and you'll see and we'll be streaming there for our election night coverage. But the other races that matter here, I mean, I want Beto to just get crushed because I don't like this

media fantasy they've created around this guy. We're he's like the Kennedy from Texas or something. I mean, it's just it's all, it's all mythology. The guy's name is Robert, he married a billionaire and now he wants to be a national level political figure because who knows why, because he's a true blue, true blue leftist. I don't know. I mean, it sounds like it, so I don't. I don't think Beto the billionaire is going to do very

well tonight. I hope that, as I've been saying, this has been really one of the only predictions that I've been consistently hammering. I think he's gonna lose by ten points. I hope he loses by ten. If he loses by four, which I think some of the polls have him at, just to know that they'll say, oh, it's a even though he lost, it's a win. That's what they'll say, even though you know he he couldn't pull it off. He pulled it off because he made a statement of Texas.

So that's that allergy. Abraham's Kemp I think, uh, I think Kemp is gonna win, but it's gonna be close, very very close in Georgia. Um, I think that Kemp is gonna win. And by the way, notice how I'm throwing out all my predictions now because you know, why not.

If we're gonna just get into the prediction zone, I might as well join the party, right what some of you will listen to this, by the way, if you're on a little bit of a delay or listen to the podcast, he'll already know to be like ah buck if you only knew hindsight is But I think that Kemp will will narrowly squeak it out against Abrams. But you know, that one I'm not super confident about. For sure. I'm very confident that Ted will will beat Beto by

a pretty wide margin. Um. The one that I can't tell you I've got good feelings about is Florida. I think Gilm is gonna beat De Santis. I just you know, the media is a lot of attention on that one. De Santis is not the most compelling candidate in the world. I just think that he's I think he's in trouble. I think he's in trouble there. I think that mc sally will will beat Cinema in Arizona. I think that Heller is gonna win in Nevada. I think that from

trying to what else. Oh and yeah, as much as I wish I could tell you Menendez would lose, I think Menda is probably gonna win in New Jersey. I mean, those are the big ones that I think people are paying a lot of attention to. UM. I also think Steve King has probably done and J. D. Hayworth I think it is I'm doing this all off the top of my head. I think he will it's Jade. Hey, what's the guy's name, you know, the guy who's running

against Steve King and Iowa. I forget his name. Anyway, I think that those are the wather the way those race will turn out. But you know, you know, speculation isn't worth much the moment we have real results, right, So I won't spend too much time on that today. Though those are my buck predictions. Take them or leave them. What's at stake though, that matters, That matters to all of us. And and here's what the real choices tonight.

I want to put it in very very clear terms, as I try to do here on the show all the time team, But what we have is, will enough of the country show up to out that understands what Trump is trying to accomplish, what Trump ZUM and the Republican Party United behind it is really all about and all of the good things the positive movement in this country in the last two years, Well enough people show up that want to continue with that, or will Democrats

take control of the House of Representatives and then drag us through a nightmarish political no holds barred h free for all of impeachment investigations and prosecutions, prosecutions that they will trump up, prosecutions that will be very selective and politicized. There will be an effort for the deep state to now rely on congressional investigation as well as stuff going on inside the d O j FBI, you know, apparatus to go after Trump people, and it's going to be

very very ugly. They will, even with the slimmest majority impeach this president because their base demands it. What will they impeach him over who knows? Doesn't even really matter, because while they'll impeach him, why they will impeach him is just a function of they hate him. They don't like the way he acts, they don't like the way he talks, they don't like what he stands for. They don't like that he holds the mirror up to the left and lets the rest of us see how ugly

and cruel and destructive the political left really is. And so they hate him. That's the reason they'll come up. Oh, they'll talk about obstruction. Oh though you know Russia collusion, Oh there was there any collusion, No, but there was an attempt at attempted collusion. That they'll just come up with some construct of why they need to hold him accountable, you know, why there needs to be this reckoning of sort,

and you know, truth be told. Um, it's going to get very very contentious, very angry, very destructive here in d C. And they'll be not a single policy benefit from Democrats holding the House of the next years. There's nothing that will come from Democrats having a majority in the House of Representatives that is a that will markedly

improve the lives of any American, not one. It'll just give a foothold in the government for even crazier conspiracy theories, for even more insane lies about how the president you know, worked with Russia and cheated on this, or cheated on that, and all these differ. I mean, that's where all of this is heading. That's what we are going to be in the midst of So we figure out, or we find out tonight, what future or we face. I mean, I am uh, I am deeply troubled at the notion

of a Nancy Pelosi led left wing house. That is just they're just looking for payback. They're not looking for legislation. They're not looking to triangulate or come up with something that would actually be worthwhile that then they could run on in actual accomplishment. No, no, no, they want to destroy They want to destroy Trump. They want to destroy all the people around him. They don't care the economy is booming, they don't care that Trump has exceeded almost

everyone's expectations for how successful as presidency has been. And they don't even care that we're you know, Trump's not on the ballot. They will make this, especially if they win the House, this will be considered a referendum on Trump, because they will use that talking point of oh, this is a referendum on Trump as yet another reason, another

rationale to trash Trump. You now, they will use it as another way that they are trying to explain why they're so ferociously opposed to this president and why they have to do everything in their power to take him down. Yes, I think the conventional wisdom right now looks pretty good. But doesn't the conventional wisdom always look pretty good? Isn't that always the case? Very likely that the Republicans will pick up a few Senate seats. I've been saying fifty five.

Maybe that's a little maybe that's a little rosy, Maybe it's fifty three, But fifty five is the number that I've picked for the GOP, and I'm sticking to it. In the House. Smart money right now, such as it is, is on twenty to thirty seats going for the you knows, switching over and going for the Democrats, you know, a net gain for the Democrats at seats in the House Representatives, which would give them a majority. That sounds reasonable to me.

There's nothing about that that I think to myself, oh, well, you know that can't happen. That must But but I again, I don't know. And the truth there's nobody knows. And thank heavens. Now, finally, you notice I don't talk about I mean opinion polls to some degree, But but election polling on this show I tend to st away from because, first of all, who the heck think about this shows?

I mean, I would see this on MSNBC. You know, the polling about candidates from three months ago, who even remembers, who even cares? It didn't matter that. It's just a way to fill time and create a create room for wild speculation, which is what tonight is often about until we finally get some numbers. But make no mistake about it, this is a very important day for the country. It's

not the most important election of our lifetime. It's not the you know that's but all that crap aside, But it is an important day because we are in the midst of a political change that was right to the heart of elitist power structures in this country, that has jolted people that thought that they were just going to continue on in their in their positions of of influence and access and money without anybody ever coming along to

shake them up a little bit. And it also is I would offer to all of you listening a necessary counterpoint and even really antidote to obama Ism. That's what Trump is after eight years of being dragged into a progressive dystopia insofar as they can affect things. America is very durable, right. A lot of stuff just kind of

happens no matter who the president is. I mean, I'm not trying to say that and everything went terrible and no, no, no, no, But in areas where the previous administration had the strongest hand, I mean in areas where they really pursued policies for it less la that was, they were wrong and they were destructive policies. They did not work out well for the American people. They were they were damaging more than there were some ways they were helpful, but they were

damaging more than helpful. Trump is a corrective to that, and people are fighting furiously against it. They do not want to have to deal with the reality of not just the erasing of Obama's legacy, which is what Trump has been doing, but setting this country on a path where things may never be the same in a good way. If Trump is able to continue his work, but he needs a majority in the Senate and a majority in

the House or else. All that this turns into is an impeachment battle that won't be settled until the twenty presidential election. More thoughts on this, my friends. I know it's a very very busy night, so stick with me, will be right back far be. If the Republicans to talk about the disruption within the Democratic Party, they got their own disruption going on battling their own president. That prison to talk about the economy, but yet it contains

to talk about the immigration. But they are not Republicans. They are Democrats, and we are looking for a big night to really hold off the president. And it's going to happen in the house. Hold off the president. That's

all this is. I mean, for all their talk on the left about health care and uh, you know, different policies that they say the Democrats are gonna pursue, at the end of the day, this is just this is just a stop Trump election, or maybe you could say it's the precursor stop Trump election to the we're really good, they're really gonna try to stop Trump, then right, but that's what they offer. Do you like what's going on now?

If yes, vote for Trump. If you don't like the prosperity, if you don't like the lighter regulatory touch, if you don't like common sense applied to the very top of our government structure, then you can vote for some crazy leftists and see how see how much fune we have is that how to transform us into a democratic socialist state,

much less of the ideological cohesion than you have. By the way, in many of these successful Democrats socialist states, one thing that never gets discussed is, you know, there's not a tremendous amount of acrimony and political division in places like Sweden or well more now these days, but that's a whole other conversation. Or Denmark, not a lot.

There's a lot of a lot of unity and cohesion among people in those in those countries that that the left wing of the Democrat Party, the Bernie wing, points to and says, why can't we do what they do? Well? The answer maybe we can't do it, that we wouldn't be able to pull that off. And we are a country now with very little that binds is I mean, you have the left wing that just yesterday was saying

maybe you should abolish the Senate. I'm seeing more of that today because why because they're not gonna win the Senate. It's just it's just sour grapes. It's just cry baby stuff. But get ready for a lot of that with the Senate because they know that there's not that much that they'll be able to do with just the House. It's it just becomes really a place for them two do

a lot of hashtag resistance speeches. You gonna have a lot of that going on on the floor, and it's not good for the country, but you know, it's it's the system we have. And I mean I at least respected insofar as this is what's got to happen. But man, for an election that's not supposed to be about the president, he certainly looms very large in this one. Uh. And I'm just just one thing I want to note. You know, you never have Republicans in these congressional districts who are

trying to run more like Democrats. Just look around tonight as the electoral map fills up and go, wait a second, that that guy or that gal sounds a lot like

a Republican on a lot of things. Now they have one, oh man, because you realize that when when they get to d C, when they get to Capitol Hill, all these people that are Democrats that are like, oh, but I'm a I'm a more traditional, you know, gun toting Democrat and now I'm from the South and I like the outdoors and blah bli blah and all this stuff. All of a sudden they vote like Nancy Pelosi. You know,

you don't have this with Republicans. Republicans are never oh yeah, I'm a I'm a left wing moderate or a centrist moderate Republican and and now I'm really gonna be a hard line right winger. As soon as I get that, that doesn't happen. So I would just note that that's a dynamic that I'm sure is going to continue to play out. And also remember you can watch our Hill TV coverage tonight if you wanted to. And in folks, there'll be some lives on there. Be prepared for it,

but a lot of conservatives to will be fun. You get to hang out with me and that I'll be starting at eight eastern tonight. Just go to Hill dot TV or you can watch us on Facebook, or we're streaming it on YouTube, a lot of digital platforms. Just type the Hill and you'll find that, or go to the Hill dot com. More election big picture analysis is

on the way, so stay tuned. We have a crisis of illegal immigration at our southern border, but this caravan that's moving north is deeply concerning people all across this country. I hear about it every day. It's the reason why the President's made it clear that the caravan will not be allowed to enter our country illegally. Ultimately, we can end this crisis of illegal immigration, but we have to

have partners on Capitol Hill to do it. And this midterm election is an opportunity for the American people to elect and reelect men and women to our nation's capital who will be committed to stand with this president. And I believe doing that that uh, that will will end this crisis of illegal immigration once and for all. I don't care what the polsters say. I don't care what the exit poles. By the way, ignore exit polling. Exit polling his garbage. Exit polling is like fancy rumormongering. It

really is nothing. People talk about it because you've got all these different networks that are, oh, here we are, we gotta cover this thing. But you don't want to get caught up in the exit polling stuff because you know, who knows what it really It usually turns out to be a nothing burger, and it's just it's filler. It's on air filler. So if you want to hear on air filler that they'll get into the exit polls and they always egue earlier. It's just, you know, it's a

it's a nonsense, nonsense fest. But immigration, I don't care what anybody says. Immigration is important to American voters right now, and it's a winner for Trump and the Republican Party. Democrats can't win on immigration if people know what the parties stand for, if they know how these parties are different. All you hear from the left is that Republicans on immigration are racist and xenophobic and want to close us

off from the rest of the world. That is preposterous. America, through our legal system, takes in a million legal immigrants every year and lets them live in this country permanently, either as citizens or as Green card holders. A million people every year. That's through our legal system. That includes a whole lot of what they call now family reunification,

but it really is is chain migration. Uh, that's another You know, the terminology here tells you so much about it, right, That's why I focus in on undocumented immigrant, which is nonsense, versus a legal alien. They want to make it seem like none of this is a problem, none of this is wrong. They really are anti sovereignty. They're anti national sovereignty.

And I would like to sit down at some point with I mean, it probably would just evolve into a shouting magic, but I'm gonna say some of the loudest voices the Democratic Party immigration and force them to answer

the question who can't stay and why? Because if the answer to who can't stay is I don't have an answer, that means that you really want everyone to stay, you just won't say it, which means that you don't believe in borders, which means that you don't believe in sovereignty, which means that you don't care if this country dissolves over time, which is what will happen if the Democrats

have their way. It's not gonna happen in a year, it won't happen in ten years, but within a couple of generations, you will have a country that no longer is held together. Remember, America is an idea. We are not an ethnic group, we are not a religious group.

It is an idea. If enough people come together in this country who don't share that idea, and whose first act on our soil is a violation of some aspect of that idea, i e. The rule of law that everyone has to obey the same laws, we're heading to a very dangerous place, a very destabilizing future, to be sure.

But I just think that immigration if if the pollsters and you know, I say, I'm not doing all oh this race, in that race, in this prediction, that prediction, I want to talk to the big issues I'm talking about happening to the national level. I mean, you know, you know, well tomorrow we can go over the results because they'll have results, they'll have they'll have data. Right now, it says it's just a speculation Olympics. That's what you've

got going on, the speculation Olympics today. Oh everyone's just you know, this might happen, but that might happen, but this might happen. One of my favorite things to point out is that on on election day, no matter who you are, you can end your sentence with at all the pen is on turnout and people will not approvingly who are around you. You know, well, I'm not sure how this election is going to turn out, but it all depends on turnout. Oh yeah, that's brilliant, Buck. You

kind of repeated yourself there, but that's brilliant. You know, Well, Bob, how's the family doing. Family's good, Jim. But it all depends on turnout. Well, that's that's that's right, A good good call. I mean, this is what you deal with. Maybe you have a lot of people that are essentially dressing up slogans and acting like it's analysis, but it's really not analysis. But on immigration, if the pollsters have been wrong, which I can't tell you now, we'll find

out tomorrow. But if if, if there's let's just say that that that the craziest of crazy things happens right now, which is that Republicans actually hold the House. That's the thing that would be the outlier, the fat tail, the black swan. If that were to happen, it would only be possible if the pollsters had But I think polisters do try to get it right because there their viability is based upon getting it right, So I think that they're less infected with political bias then say pundits are.

That doesn't mean that they don't have some skew in their view. But if the Republicans do hold the House and we have this yet again, this shock wave moment of oh my gosh, the establishment got it wrong. How could they not have seen this? How can they? It will be in my opinion, because of the issue of immigration. I think it's I think immigration is number one, And you know what I think number two is the clarifying

effect of Kavanaugh. I think a lot of people, a lot of people in the kind of you know, middle the upper middle class burbs and just across the country in general. But if you're looking at it based on voting cohort cohorts a lot of people who weren't enamored with Trump and trump Ism, but who are traditional kind

of right of center folks. They saw the ritualized humiliation and flagellation of Kavanaugh on national TV, and they realize what everyone in this country, if they're being honest, should realize, which is the Democrats will stop at nothing. They cannot be trusted, and they are crazy. I would immediately call the president of Mexico the president of Canada to try to amend NAFTA. We've got to make sure that our agreements are good for everybody, because globalization right now is

creating winners and losers. Wait a second. That was Obama at the start of his presidency. He's saying he was gonna amend NAFTA and also talking about how globalizations created winners and losers, and that affects jobs and other things here at home, right, I mean, that's the implication of what he said. First of all. Wow, okay, so Obama was kind of paying attention at one time. And I would just note that was there ever a n after deal that Obama actually signed. Oh no, he did not

sign a n aftter deal. But you know who did sign a deal on a renewed and updated NAFTA. Oh that's right. President Trump did play cliff too. We have negotiated this new agreement based on the principle of fairness and reciprocity. To me, it's the most important word and trade because we've been treated so unfairly by so many nations all over the world. They were changing that. That's right.

The President has gotten results. This is a presidency that wants to be and should be judged on its results. And as I have said, all along, they hated even more because it is successful. I think the left they would still despise Trump, but their fury would be less tinged with insanity if Trump weren't succeeding so much. The fact that his presidency is as good and as successful as it is so far just further frightens them that maybe they need to rethink some of their core beliefs.

And they won't. They will shut that part of their brain out right away. Oh No, that that can't be it. It's got to be something else. It can't be that maybe Trump sees something that other people don't. It can't be that there's something else at work here. That's that's just not possible. But but it is. But it is.

All along the administration has known, Trump has known, all of his top people have known that mistakes of policy and any betrayal of the base would be unforgiven that it would be used for maximum political damage against administration. And so they've had to they've had to one and keep faith with the base and two uh deliver. And and that is what I think Trump has done, and that's what to some degree, the Republicans have done. Look, we we can't skip over the fact that they did

not repeal and replace Obamacare. That did not happen. And we have a handful of senators that we can thank, however you want to thank them for that whole process, for that debacle. We did not repeal and replace Obamacare. And it really just goes to show you that there there can be even for a party that I think is right in principle and right on the on the core issues, like the Republican Party is, there can be

legislative malpractice. And that's what that's what it was to not have not just something ready to go, but something compelling with which to replace Obamacare, something compelling that you could sell the people, the voters. Pre Existing conditions. I mean, you know, this is where we get into this policy discussion. Pre Existing conditions are a very popular issue that have a lot of emotional appeal. People want to believe that if they get sick, there will be insurance for them.

People want to believe that the government isn't going to allow for people to die slowly and painfully from treatable disease because they don't have insurance. And now people say, oh buck, but you know hospitals have the Yeah, the e R has to take you, but you might not necessarily get the life saving treatment you need if you don't have insurance. Let's just be honest about this. Now, how do you expand that? How do you make it better? Well, what you want is more people practicing medicine at a

higher level and more efficient delivery of care. And the way you get that is by people who are the recipients of care having the power of the dollar behind them. So that means more free market based solutions for a lot of this, not all of it, because like the Medicare is not free market, Medicaid is not free market, the v A is not free market. I mean, there's a lot of aspects of healthcare delivery that we have to come to grips with it aren't going away that

are not based in the group now. And if people say, oh buck, you know, try care and and and uh and the v A. And there's some some programs now that allow for you to go see private doctors. Yeah, I know, right, this is we're talking about an enormously complicated subject. But it gets boiled down to these very ah useful political slogans by the left while the right is talking about the free market like we're at some kind of a higher lecture all the time. That just

doesn't cut it. I mean, it's one of if we I will say this, if we lose tonight in the election, if we lose the House, it will be in no small part because Republicans at a national and a local level have lacked a coherent and compelling message on what we're gonna do on healthcare. They have not talked enough about the efforts to improve prescription drug pricing, which is a problem. I mean, these you know, prescription drugs are you know, when you when you're talking about the protection

of intellectual property, it's not an absolute thing. There there's a balancing act here between the good that society gets in the product and the benefit that the maker of the product gets from their patent or from their their trademark, their right to sell this this particular intellectual property. But it's not an absolute thing. It's not a forever thing.

It's not a you know, you developed some new drug and then on a whim you can say, well this drug now you know, for people that needed to save their lives, that costs them a million dollars a day. You can't do that, and people say the market wouldn't bear it. But even in the short term, there there are moral implications to some of these decisions. And the government is inherently involved, right because if a drug company comes along says here's my new drug in a free,

free market, you know what happens. Somebody else can say, Oh, that's a great drug. I'm gonna make that drug too. Oh now your profit margin goes away. Right, So the government's playing a role. Philosophically, we need to understand that.

But there hasn't been nearly enough push on that. And if there's one area of regret, if there's one issue that I think Republicans have not done a good enough job, you know, look, they've done what they can on the economy, but you know, the media is very powerful on that and and the and people don't vote when they're happy. They vote when they're upset or annoyed about something. They want something to change. But on on healthcare, you know,

they they they didn't repeal and replace Obamacare. I know they'd say they didn't have the sixty votes for a supermajority, but they couldn't even get the fifty one votes as a budgetary measure. John McCain, you know, cast that final vote against it and and killed the deal or killed the bill. It wasn't a deal as a bill. But there's there has not been a a strong enough message on that issue. And it just makes me furious because the Democrats, look, they're going for single pair now because Obama.

If Obamacare was so great, why are they talking about a single payer Obamacare is not great. First of all, only really affects a pretty small center to the overall population. And it's very expensive, very low quality healthcare that people who really can't afford to subsidize it or subsidizing. And if you make forty to seventy thousand dollars a year Obama and you're in the individual market, Obamacare is probably

a very bad deal for you. If you make you know, thirty thousand dollars a year in the individual market, you know, maybe now you're you're in a better position. But okay, I mean we're not. We're not talking about a clear trade off of nothing but good stuff here. And some people are suffering because of it, and they're not suffering because of decisions that they've made. They're suffering because of

the decisions that the government's made. You know, a healthcare system where the dollar follows the consumer, where you have choice, where you have the ability to find the care that you want and get the best price for it, and the government regulation is altered so that we don't have these essentially these you know, legal cartels that are still uh, you know, still trying to do everything they can to protect even you know, decades later, whatever patents they have

in place and everything else. You know, the fact that drugs for things like um or rather procedures like dialysis are you know, so lobbyist intensive, and there's so much stuff that goes on behind the scenes that's not free market. We need to clear it out. We need transparency, We need the individuals to have control of the dollars, and we also need to have a whole And this is a discussion that I know people don't necessarily want to have.

We don't have a national level discussion about how you know, what the truth is, everybody's health is in their own hands. Now what I I don't mean that you know, you're if you get sick. And I'm somebody who's dealt with all kinds of really freakish, out of the blue ailments over the course of my life, you know, Celiac disease being the one I've talked about the most. But just I deal with all kinds of stuff. I know you

have to. I'm not saying you're responsible for your health is in like it's your it's your fault you get the flu. What I'm saying is your health and wellness is really up to you. The government will not make you healthy, The government will not make you well. This needs to know. We keep thinking, oh, if we have health care, it's all gonna be okay. No, it's not all gonna be okay just because you have health care that the government gives you, that the government says you

can have. Health, like so many other things in our lives, is an active process that should be left to the greatest degree possible to the individual, of course, working with doctors and experts. But you've got to you've got to take control of and and that's why a market that more accurately reflects I mean right now, it's you know, I gotta go see a doctor. I'll I'll go see somebody and I'll pay the cope and they'll tell me what to do. All right, Well, that that's good when

you need it. But there's a lot more to it than just that. I know, I'm kind of getting a little bit off the off the initial topic of the policy. But once again, vote Republican because the Democrats are nuts, and even on healthcare, they don't have the solutions. They just have the slogans. You don't want that. Online security is essential.

the lying and the hatred. President and his team are trying to drive up fear and rage when it comes to these margarints coming up from Central America towards the US border. Power to destroy this planet that's in the finger of a presidented States and the President Trump holding rallies all over the country thinking to new loads with his line and fear mongering. This is why questions about his fitness for office are so urgent. This is the

biggest story that I see happening right now. Presidents their their job is to inspire and to bring hope to the American people, sometimes in difficult times. And what this president does is pedal fear. Could be leading the United States towards World War three, could be leading America towards a nuclear war, you know, sort of doomsday nightmare scenario.

The President's fully embraced a dark anti immigrant message and the hope that stoking fear motivated voters to reject Democrats pose a profound danger to every single person in this

country and literally every inhabitant of the planet Earth. As you're at the polls today, my friends, although I know a lot of you probably already finished your voting, a lot of you probably early voted, I just want you to remember that the single biggest pitch the Democrats have for why you should vote for them is rooted in fear. Fear of fascism, fear of Trump's reckless nuclear war, fear of Trump destroying the economy, fear in all these things.

But the same people that are constantly trafficking in fear of Trump and Russia collusion and how the Kremlin's running this country now and all this stuff, they're the ones that are telling you, oh, no, no no, no, don't be don't be fooled for a second by all the fearmongering

by the Republicans. It's not fearmongering to say that we have a poorout southern border with countless thousands, hundreds of thousands of people coming in year and year out are not supposed to It's not fearmongering to say that the opioid epidemic in this country, which is killing over seventy thousand people a year, is primarily supplied by cartels working across the border and poisoning our brothers and sisters, mothers and fathers and husbands day in and day out in

communities across the country. That's not fear mongering. That's a fact. You know, there are some things that we have to address that are true, that are uncomfortable, and Trump is willing to do that on these issues. Now, the caravan was a big media cause. Initially they all, look, you're another caravan, women in trolling. They were the ones covering it. Trump didn't make this an issue. Trump didn't make seven thousand people come together and across from Guatemalan to Mexico

and all this stuff. Clearly not but it's indicative. The reason the media gets so upset out about this is what it does is show you that they are not willing, They are not open and honest about the fact that they really want the whole caravan to come into the country. They want to see the caravan in the United States, they want to see more of them. I mean, the

Democrats are an extremist party on immigration. Now, extremist. The same way that when you talk to Democrats about abortion, you know, do you realize, oh wow, they they just it's everything or it's nothing with them. I mean that they're they're making no distinctions whatsoever. There's absolutely no willingness to take a moderate or middle position on this. Anything's true with immigration. What is acceptable to the left when

it comes to immigration amnesty? What is acceptable when it comes to the to the left and people crossing our southern border, anyone can claim asylum. Anyone gets to come in the country. After they do so, nobody faces interior enforcement unless they break a serious Lawless they break, you know, they commit a felony. Okay, So how are we not an open borders country at that point? Oh? Because you have to stop and check in at the border. First.

All you gotta do is claim asylum, go through the process. A lot easier to do that, by the way, then go through the legal immigration process and all the different recommendations and lawyer fees and all these other things. Right, it's a lot a lot harder to do it the legal way. So why would you do it the legal way? Why would you go through that route? And I just would note that you know that we should be honest about this and not let the other side dictate the

terms of our discussion. But this notion of the conservatives engaging and fear mongering, Trump engaging in fear mongering. All I hear from the leftist fear mongering. These people say that Trump is basically like Hitler. They talk about fascism coming to America, and anybody, and I know this audience is very historically attuned. Anybody knows anything about fascist, knows

what's a terrifying thing. If that were true, it's nonsense, but some people believe it, some people buy into it, and those people happen to be Democrats, and those people cannot be reasoned with on the policy matters we've been discussing here on the show. Those people have really they've lost it. As I've been telling you. By the way, you got another thing here with with Biden. Um Biden is saying that you know, this is gonna this is gonna put the brakes on Trump and and we're gonna

stop all the meanness and all the bad stuff. Producer Mike pulled together this this montage of former Vice President Joe Biden with what he says now about how he's you know, we're gonna restore civility and stop Trump from being such a racist and all this stuff to the kind of stuff he said in the past. Play clip eleven. And this is the single most important off your election in my lifetime. And I really think it's more than just out of specific issues. I think it's about the

character of the country. It's either he is so stupid that he doesn't understand. No, it's possible that now that that's not really give him. It's possible he doesn't understand the damage he's doing. But I really believe it. I think we have to change the tone. Well, le may say he's a joke. Bill Roth work thirty years together, not a harsh word one single time. Can you imagine this guy becoming commander in chief and getting one ounce of respect from a single solitary military man or woman.

Has gotten too nasty and it's too base. Any guy who talked that way was usually the fattest, ugliest s op in the room. And this appealed to nativism and nationalism and a phony nationalism and racism. Is it's got to stop. And I think this election is going to put some brakes on it. We're in high school. I've taken behind the gym and beat the hell out of him. So which which is it? Biden? Do we need serious Biden voice? I'm doing surious, serious talk about the country

and the future. And you know, or am I like, you know, hey, I'm gonna earn Biden. I'm gonna go kick some button. I'm gonna I'm Mr. Tough guy and Trumps a buffoon? And which is it? Which is it? I would note that you know, Trump speaks the same way all the time. Trump was the same in that Oval Office interview I did a couple of months ago, as he is during his rallies. Same Trump, Obama, Biden. These guys have different acts they put on, you know, Obiden,

O Biden, Oh gosh. Biden sometimes is you know, Mr roll up the sleeves. You know, yeah, I'm just you know, blue collar Joe. And then I just you know, and then you know, a minute later, he's lecturing people on on foreign policy international relations because he thinks that he's connecting to different crowds. Obama, I mean, you know, Obama changes his cadence, his tone, and all kinds of things

depending on what he thinks is most useful in the moment. Now, you can say that's just being a good politician, but I would say it's a little phony, isn't it. Trump's the same all the time. You got the same Trump any time a day. But you know, I really don't appreciate hearing from the left. You know the same people that were trying to tell us a couple of months ago that Justice Kavanaugh was a teenage gang rapist. Now want to lecture us on civility. Now, want to tell

us that Trump's tone has to change. I remember what they were doing to Kavanaugh. I remember how the left was playing that game, and I am not going to forget any time. And I really hope that people remember today as they cast their ballots, because the left showed you who they were during that fiasco, and it was ugly. It was disgusting, and it was disgraceful. So yeah, vote Republican team. You know, I'm all about Black Rifle coffee. I drink it every single morning. You know, I get

up super early. But Black Rifle is a delicious kickstar to all my days activities. And it's not one of these corporate slash comie coffee companies that are out there that try to do all this left wing bias training nonsense are always trying to stand ahead of the rest of the progressive crowd and seem like their virtue signaling.

As wouldn't be shocked anymore by the overt racism that we have seen either from the President of the United States or Republicans who are trying to win election. They are pulling out the stops in Georgia to try to keep Stacy Abrams from winning the election if they vote Republican. They are saying, we are okay with the message coming from this party. We are okay with the president using racism

against migrants coming from Central America. We are okay with a gubernatorial candidate who is putting out tweets that are clearly about inciting fear among white voters to keep them from voting for for Stacy Abrams. So this is about the direction of the country and who we are as a people in Georgia. Tonight has an opportunity to say that, um, the Georgia of gone with the win is gone with the win. How does the left of find racism? Because I'm really sick of them throwing this term around all

the time. I mean, it's just it's it's really a central theme of every political conversation, it seems on the left has to tie into race. It's just it all comes back down to race, it all comes back down to any politics, and they keep saying racist. And what I think is so interesting is they never have to define what racism really is. What do they think racism is?

I've always operated with the following definition in mind. I know that there's some you know, some gray areas here, but racism to me being or thinking of people differently because of their skin color or race. That that's what racism is. It's pretty straightforward. To the left. Racism is you don't want unrestricted immigration across our southern border, therefore you are racist, and you say yourself, We'll hold on

a second. If there was unrestricted immigration coming from north of our border, I'd have a problem with that too. I just don't want people coming into this country who aren't obeying our laws and shouldn't be in the country. I don't care where they come from. I'm not advocating for unrestricted Irish immigration to this country, even though I'm about half Irish, probably more Native American than Elizabeth Warren, but I'm about half Irish. Um, you know, so so

what when they call that racist? To me, that's just a smear. It's unfair, it's it's a lie. It's destructive, and I I really get sick of it, and I think we all should be sick of it. I think that we all should call this out more than we do,

because they keep they keep saying Trump is racist. I mean there are some you know, I would like to have this conversation with some of these big pundits and really be able to drill down into this because the questions that I would ask them, and that was Jonathan cape Part is a Washington Post writer. I believe in an MSNBC contributor, I would ask k Part would ask me, I can't even think of all the punnits that say Trump's racist, because they all say he's racists on the left.

I mean, they're that's one of their favorite talking points. But I'd say, okay, so what exactly are you saying? You're saying that Trump is the claim that Trump doesn't like people who are not white? Is that really and and and if they believe, and I think some of them would say yes, But I want to know what

evidence do you have for that? Do you think the president's lyne when he clearly gets up in front of people time and time again and and has a real pride that beams from his face when he talks about black unemployment at a historic low, Hispanic unemployment at historic low.

I mean, do these leftists really think that when President Trump has, you know, young black conservatives as recently happened at the White House, right, they had that whole group that came into young Black conservatives when they want to come in and talk to the president, they're so excited to see him. Do liberals really believe that the President's thinking, well, you know, these aren't these aren't my kind of people or something? Even? Maybe what much worse than that, Because

if they do, I think they're delusional. I think they're crazy. And I think that this old model that the Democrats still run with of telling everybody all the time that everything is racist, is running out of steam. I mean, we're all pretty sick of it. One thing that I don't think the Left has come to grips with yet is that one of the reasons we have Trump as president is we're all so sick of being told that everything, and particularly every Republican is racist. Everything is racist, everything

is racial all the time. Every Conservative that I know and consider a friend or colleague speaks about individuals and race relations in in tones that are very similar to the way I do, which is that we view people as people, and every you know, there are some people who are great, some people who are bad, some people who are smart, some people who are dumb. That's true, people of all racist ethnicies and backgrounds, And it is a moral and logical fallacy to judge an individual by

skin color. Meanwhile, the left wants to judge people by skin color all the time. The left looks at your skin color and says, you better be a Democrat. The left looks at your skin color and says you must have been oppressed. Let's help you get into school. The left looks at skin color and says, you must add something special into the conversation. So let's, uh, let's give you this government contract or you know whatever. Right they

believe in a racial entitlement state. And yet they tell us that we're the ones who are so racist all the time, if there were hordes, I mean, this is this is where the left really falls apart. And and they never are forced to really answer this question. None of their leading and I was gonna say intellectuals, that's almost hard for me to say out loud. But none of their leading voices, loudest, whiniest pundits and writers on

the left ever have to grab all this. Is there a position really that they think that rump voters and remember Trump only was able to win because a lot of Obama voters actually voted for Trump. A lot of Obama voting areas of the country, in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin voted for Trump. Their position is that if it were millions of people coming into the country who didn't speak English, uh,

we're impoverished and we're breaking the law. But they had lighter skin color, that the Republican Party would be excited about it, that that Republicans would be fine with this. They they may believe that, but that's bull crap and it's crazy. It's not about skin color, but they try to make it about skin color in the conversation so that they can morally blackmail us and saying, Okay, you're right. We we don't have the right to sovereignty. We don't

have the right to secure our borders. I've heard Trump called racist so many times that I'm most number to it at this point. I mean, people are slipping into conversation on different TV shows and it's it's like it's part of his title. Now if you're a Democrat, Oh yeah, our racist President Trump. They just say it all the time. And when I asked them, why is he racist again, they say, oh, they always pray, they say, well, charlotte Ville, he said there's good people on both sides. He misspoke.

He wasn't trying to say that Neo Nazis were okay, And anybody who actually pays attention to the circumstances of the conversation knows that I'm not saying what he said was okay. I'm saying he misspoke. He was talking about the fight over the monument, should the monuments stay or not? And he got convoluted. And then he condemned a thousand I mean, you know, for people say, oh, we didn't misspeak buck Well, Yeah, he condemned the the other the

the Tiki Torch mafia a bunch of times afterward. Their losers, and he condemned them in a very Trumpian way. They're losers, these are these are people that we shouldn't listen to. They're irrelevant, they're clowns, are losers, they're jokes. But none of that matters, right, All that matters is that he missed boke once and now we're supposed to always and forever believe that he's a racist. It's just nobody that I know who knows this president. And I know people

that know him very well personally. And I've known the family, although not super well, but I've known the family stretching back now for gosh, I don't know, twenty years over twenty years. I first met the Trump's when I was fourteen. I think New York guys not a racist, all right, He's a New Yorker. He's like me. You live in New York. You get used to you like people who they are. You don't care where they're from. You get brilliant people from all over the world, you get idiots

from all over the world. It doesn't matter. You just take people as people. You're surrounded by. You know, more diversity than you know anywhere else you could ever imagine. But they want to believe that Trump is a racist. They're really dedicated to this idea that the President United States is raised. It is so destructive, my friends, and really makes me so angry. A little bit of surprising political stuff coming today from none other than than Axel Rose.

And you know, for those who who you know, those of you who are a little on the young side, you may not know really who Axel Rose is, because he was a huge deal really in the eighties and he is the lead singer of the band Gun was is uh I guess was Guns and Roses. And he went after Trump today and we happened to have a a Axel Rose expert of sorts with us Brandon DJ Brandon, who runs the board, is an expert in all things accel Rose Brandon walk us through this feud with the

former G and R frontman and Trump. Well he is the current G and R frontman. Oh, gene are still a thing, so you don't even know that they well to make it sure they reunited and I guess had the fourth most successful tour of all time last year. But wait, are you serious they're actually doing well. That's amazing because it's tell you what the state of music is today. Now now they're they're alive and well, now

it's amazing. But um axcel is. He tweets very few in farm between, he doesn't follow anybody, usually not being important, but lately he's been very political and recently he went on kind of like a tirade for the first time really coming calling out Trump supporters and saying that it's okay that he can't uh pick his fans uh and basically says the White House is uh, it's an emergency state. And he's tweeted him voting, putting in his his envelope out there and you know, vote blue. So he's uh,

he's attacking Donald Trump and the entire administration. Says that represents all of guns and roses. That's how they feel. And that started because sweet child the Mind has been played at Trump rallies and he can't do a season desist because of some sort of loophole. Here here's what he says about it, actually tweeted out. Unfortunately, Trump campaign is using loopholes and the various venues blanket performance licenses which were not intended for such craz even political purposes,

without the songwriter's consent. So, as I understand it, if you are in an arena, the arena has the rights to music that it can play, and the venue can play the music without anyone say so under the licenses that they have, because usually they license out these music catalogs to uh, you know, to like the Staples Center or whatever, and they figure they're gonna be played mostly at other concerts of sporting events, so no one really cares. But for political events now they play them, and I

gotta say, I like this. Trump is clearly the more of these artists complain about it, the more Trump is gonna do it. Why not why not troll? Why not troll? Beyonce and Rihanna and Axel Rose. Why not. It's it's quite amazing. And I see the comments of the fans, people saying, you know, I've been a fan all my life and now I'm not so But he's putting his his foot down. He doesn't care. It's the same you know, a line of thinking as Bruce Springsteen or Green Day.

They're just he's put putting his political views out there. I think everybody and Energy Aiment should take the position of of Michael Jordan's on this one, which is Republicans by sneakers too. It's true Republicans by sneakers to um anyway. So I just I felt like we had to because we do have a Brandon what your your podcast is? What again? It's like Axel Rose Through the Ages or something,

what do you do close enough appetite for distortion? Actually my last episode we we spoke about that because I mean, in regards like Ted Nugent, you know, like I don't go to his concerts because I don't want to hear it being politicized. So um. So yeah, it's just, uh, you wouldn't think in two thousand eighteen, Axel Rose, I think actually Chris Hayes called him woke. He tweeted, so it's being taken notice by the liberal media. Axel Rose

is woken out. Yeah, I guess he's woke until he trashes a hotel room and a bunch of you know, a bunch of people who are recent immigrants have to clean up after him, like And I don't know about him being woke. I think people might wanna they might want to chill on that a little bit there. But you know, there is there is that. Um there's a phenomenon that I want to dig a moment to address here, which is the the dishonesty that we see of people

who claim to be Republicans and advocate voting for Democrats. Now, there are a lot of areas where you could you could get into a bit of um, you know, a bit of a back and forth on this right. There's a lot of people say, oh, well, there they're still

conservative and Trump is not. But at this point, if you want to step away, and I know some very talented conservative writers who can't be who won't really openly back Trump, well back some of his policies, but they've kind of stepped they've stepped away, meaning they're saying, all right, this isn't really my administration. I'll still call some balls and strikes, but I don't stand that they won't stand against Trump, but they certainly won't stand with the other side.

I can understand that. I obviously don't agree with it. I think it's shortsighted. I think it lacks some judgment. But I do think that there's there are principles at work there that I can understand and respect. I can't understand and respect these people who are I'm a Republican now vote for all the Democrats. How how is that supposed to work? Exactly? I mean, how does that help

the situation in any way? It just strikes me as being well, it's it's careerism, and it's really also about ego, because a lot of Republican establishment figures, UH care first and foremost about their position within the Republican ranks, whether in media or in in the political world. And they won't they won't back down off of this. They they're not willing to say, you know what I should, I

should chill out. This isn't all about me. Here's um here, Here's a montage courtesy of our main man producer Mike, where you just hear some of this from from different quote. Republicans play fifteen. The Party of Trump must be destroyed politically. I am urging everybody to vote straight ticket Democratic in November because I think it is imperative think at some checks and balances. I left the party about five weeks ago. I think Democrat should take the House, thankful, be safer

in a divided government. Those are all people who appear on TV and I guess and maybe in some cases until recently as Republicans. I mean they come from the gen Reuben of the Washington Post school of Republicans, which is you only exist so that to bash Republicans and say you're a Republican when you do it, that that's your thing, that's your hook. I find these people gross. You know, I could sit you know some of you.

I think we're a little uh, you know you. You wanted me to get into it a little bit more aggressively with with Jank Weeger of the Young Church when he came on Rising, but we were having look one is that it wasn't a wonder one conversation. I have to also be respectful of Crystal's time, and she's progressive and she's sitting there, so it's a difficult dynamic. But also we were having a real conversation. He was answering questions.

I mean, he said a couple of things that were a little, you know, a little bombastic and a little silly, but you know, overall he was he was. We were having a conversation about stuff that matters to people. And whenever somebody wants to do that, I I like to respond in kind. I don't you know, if I say what do you think about healthcare? And someone says I like single pair, I'm not gonna start saying, oh, you're just a stupid commie you why don't you go shut

your stupid face? Right If they say, well, I like single pair, unlike you, you racist Republican that doesn't care about poor people or healthcare, then I'll, you know, go to that other level, right. I mean, I I think that that's it's not even just a question of being respectful. I just think that that's a more sane approach to these issues. But with these Republicans quote Republicans that are out there, I just wonder, what do they think the

endgame is here? Do they think that will forget that they stood for the party of Pelosi, Schumer, uh Ocasio Cortes, Bernie Sanders, all all these types, you know, Adam Shift, I mean, some really slimy, gross characters and the left. They they voted, they advocated publicly voting for these people. It's one thing to step away and say you can't

support something. Everybody has that right, uh, But it's another thing to say, I'm gonna support your enemies out of out of spite, even though I'm supposed to be on your team. And I just think it's Look, I think that they're Republican turn coats. I really do. And you know, there are a couple of them who are people that I've considered, if not friends, certainly kind of colleagues. And I find it very disappointing. And I don't know why

they can't figure it out. I don't know why they can't see what's happening to the country, and what's happened on the Supreme Court, what's happening to federal judiciary, and and in so many different ways, and say these are good things. Not perfect. Trump is far from perfect, but this is what we should get. This is what we want from our politicians and from our president. I just I think the act wears very thin here for these

fake conservatives. It's the economy, stupid. We are growing, you know, three point five percent and to three four point two percent, to two three overall, my friends on the other side of the out side, you couldn't be too We are now beating three. This is the biggest single story of eighteen and it is not going away. The economy is roaring.

In fact, the economy is so good, as you know, with this mid term election today that a lot of us around and say, what else could Republicans realistically be expected to do to win votes of people who are persuadable and what what else could be really ask for beyond an economy that is exceeding anything that we saw during the Obama years. And we know this, by the way, because there were there were efforts made to excuse some

of the weak aspects of the Obama economy. And I mean in years six, seven, and eight, I don't mean

the first couple of years, by the way. The the greatest luck, as it were, for the Obama for the Obama administration was that he came in with an economy that was in a cyclical recession essentially, and all he did would spend a trillion dollars a taxpayer money on stuff that didn't need we didn't need to spend money on, and then make sure the recovery was a lot slower and a lot less strong than it would have otherwise been,

by raising taxes, by imposing more regulations, by creating business uncertainty. But you know, presidents don't determine every aspect of the economy economy. You could have had a goldfish be president after the recession and eventually the economy would rebound because the president isn't the economy, right. So the thing that's so lucky at the Obama aministration is that because the standard for where the economy was was, or rather because the the level of economy was so low, it was

inevitable it was going to get better over time. I mean it was inevitab bowl because remember Obama didn't do the bank bailout. I always think that that somehow gets lost here. It wasn't that Obama came up with some plan to save the economy. You know what's really interesting is when you ask liberals, Okay, so what did Obama do for this great recovery. You you know, Keynesie and stimulus. Well even Paul Krubin. Krubin was saying at the time, you know, a year or two in the Kynesie and stimulus,

stimulus didn't work. It was too small, they didn't spend enough money and all kinds of stuff. We're just throwing a trillion dollars of your money, essentially putting on the taxpayers credit card and spending in all kinds of things Democrats wanted to spend it on. Well, you know, they didn't.

And people talk about the job creation everything else. I mean, first of all, a lot of the jobs were in relatively low wage sectors, so you have a lot of people getting service industry jobs, which I don't think you could say that that's something that we want to see as as a continuing trend. We really want to see wage growth. You didn't have that. But you know when you break down all the numbers and you see that there's this mythology now around what Bomba was able to do,

and it's completely and cynically created. It's really fabricated by the left and on the left. And keep in mind that if we were I mean, I just want to I want to say this right now. This is I've been telling you all day to predict No one can predict the future. It's one of the more interesting lectures from Michael Crichton that I think I've told you about in the past, where he just talks about nobody can predict it. And he really is somebody who paid attention

to this because so much futuristic predictions stuff. For rather being able to see into the future is is media and creative kind of creative arts related. But you know, you got all these people go on TV, Oh, I can see the future on any number the whole you know, the stock market, all these things. Oh, people can no one, no one can really predict the future. It's just assessing probability and then taking reasonable risk on but no one

really knows. And you know, I think that's important. But you look at you look at where things are now with the economy, and here here's the big line right as everyone's going to the I know some of you are probably still voting as you hear this, although it's getting pretty late, pretty late in the game for most places. If you're still in line, don't go anywhere. If you're listening to me on your iPhone or your Android. Don't go anywhere. Stay in line and vote, please, please, please.

Some of these elections are probably gonna come down to a very very thin margin, all right, if you're in particularly Florida, Indiana, Montana, Nevada, Arizona, New Jersey. I hope, but probably not as much. Please stay and vote. I mean I would say, I would say, Tennessee, I think

Blackburn's gonna kick reticence, but pretty handily. So what what you what the Obama economy line, though, you know that it's garbage, because let's say that in the next month, all of a sudden, we saw the signs of a really spooked economy, meaning we saw, you know, huge drop off in the drop off in the stock market. People's four oh one case getting crushed. But the people always say, oh, well, you know I'm not in the stock market. Do you have a pension plan? Because pension plans are all based

on growth and earnings from the markets. So no, nobody is really immune from this stuff, right, The housing markets affected by this. Every you know, your asset prices, everything is affected by the market. So, and I don't like to I hear this from a lot of leftist will oh, well, you know, only only Americans were even invested in the stock market. It's not really true because the markets more broadly, bond market, stock market, currency markets, all of that effects

every aspect of the economy. So there again there's a lot of a lot of you know, economic ignorance on the left. They kind of revel in it really so eight the Obama they call it the Obama recovery now because it's so good, and they can't say it's not good. It's just they just sound foolish. If we had a huge correction, I promise you they would stop referring to it as the Obama economy that day and now it's Trump's economy. And that's how you know that it's just

it's just partisan garbage. I mean, they're not really analyzing or assessing anything. In no way are they looking at this objectively and saying, yeah, you know what, we we think that it is the Obama economy. They just want to try to take credit for something that they think will be politically useful for them, and that's what is driving all us. That's what it's really about. So that's my my message on the economy. I just hope that we can continue in this trajectory. We are going to

have a reset at some point. I mean that's not you know, I can't tell you when. I'll just tell you will. And that's just based in history. There will be a reset, and they will all blame if it happens on Trump's watch, They'll blame it all on Trump and tax cuts. And you know what the script will be.

And that's really when I get concerned about a possible move toward real, real socialism in this country is if we have a huge Remember we were told that the entire global financial market almost collapsed in two thousand and two thousand and eight. I mean that that that's gospel.

We were told that if we didn't take drastic measures, that we would have had, uh, you know, kind of contagion where no one can get any credit, the markets all freeze up, and the whole thing just collapses around us, and we'd have to build build their economic markets back up, or rather our global markets back up from scratch. And you know, whether that's a little exaggerated or not, that was ten years ago and that's where we were, and that's what the so called smart folks say about it.

So you can imagine that right now, there's nothing that makes it beyond the pale that we could have a similar problem right now, we could have a similar issue that would come up in the next six months, of the next six years, who know who knows. I can't tell you the timing. I don't pretend to be able to tell you the time, but just remember that they will. The day that the economy goes bad is the day

that they stopped talking about the Obama recovery. And that's just because they're a bunch of dishonest hacks and they don't want to deal with the fact that when you unleash the American people to do what they do best, when the business of the American people is business, we all prosper. And that's what Trump has done. Okay, so you've got a job opening. You want to get a filled with the best person as fast and efficiently as

he can. So you posted online to some site no one's really ever heard of and hope that best people possible find you. Guess what, not smart. So you put out some kind of like local Facebook ad or something and hope that you get the right person. Not smart hire the smart way, the right way with zip recruiter. Okay, that's the smart way to do things. Zip recruiter doesn't depend on candidates finding you, It finds them for you. I have colleagues at the Hill dot com right now.

That's zip recruiter dot com, slash buck Again, zip recruiter dot com, slash buck higher the smart way zip recruiter dot com

slash buck. I think one of the greatest disconnects between the left and the right in politics today is that the left really believes that people on the right are mean, uncaring. We don't care about the poor, We only care about rich people, even though a vast, vast majority of us and more than a majority, I mean, a very small percentage of us are rich on the right, but we don't care about poor people. We only care about wealthy

people and white people. And we're me I mean, this is really this idea on the left, and it and it continues and it for as long as I've been aware of politics and following it so stretching back to probably my high school years, there has been this idea

out there that Republicans are mean. That amazing Grace singing was going on at a Trump rally that was just yesterday out in Cape Girardo and a woman, I believe it was a woman um appeared to fall ill and and fainted, which you know in crowd situations that can happen. You get overheated, you get tired standing up. She fainted, and that Trump crowd everyone there spontaneously started singing Amazing Grace as a doctor was called in to tend to

this person. Understanding is that the person was was fine. I don't believe anything serious happened, but I just think it was. It was one of those unscripted moments where you got a window into how the people that support Trump really feel and who they are and what this president actually thinks. Look that the President Trump is is an imperfect vessel. You don't need me to tell you that.

You know that, right. President Trump is a flawed man, like we're all flawed people, and in some ways he is particularly perhaps idiosyncratic and maybe even extreme in certain flaws. But he also really is doing this because he cares

about the country. Sure, he's got a very healthy and that's putting a mildly ego, and he has his appetites that he uh, you know, engages and you know, there's a lot of things that you can criticize about this president, but in terms of his ability to hold the office that he does, on to the pressures that he does and push for what he's been doing since the very beginning,

he's really incredible. I mean, he's he's a phenomenon. But there's also a component of this that I feel like doesn't ever get talked about, and it doesn't certainly is not covered in the by the media, and there's no effort to provide this balance whatever. There's so much about how, you know, Obama, the person Obama was so likable, and they do this to people who aren't nearly as charismatic as Obama was. Right, They'll do this with you know,

Joe Biden. No, Joe Biden is so likable. Oh, you know, they'll tell these little anecdotes to really make the make the person, the candidate, the politician seem like they're relatable. That's that's the really the special word in politics is this person relatable. And I would just offer that President Trump is highly relatable two people across the country and the moment that you take his political positions out of it.

I mean, if you just put Trump on a street corner talking to a bunch of construction workers of any race, of any political persuasion, and just talking to them like a normal person, would they would like Trump? And I think they would like Trump because as much as he's a billionaire and and is a playboy and all these things, I think that he has always had a respect for the common man, for everyday folks. He likes them. It's it's more than even just respect. He has an affinity

for them. He likes talking to normal people. He likes the way that everyday individuals engage with each other. And that's a big part of what's been so revolutionary about him and and so has so differentiated him from previous GOP candidates. You know, it's not that I'm not aware of his shortcomings. GE's that I think I'm over time more acutely aware of what is particularly special about him as a politician. Alright, I'm not gonna grow up or grow up. I'm pretty old right now. Somebody today told

me they thought I was thirty. By the way, that was. That was nice. So yeah, at about six years onto that one soon to be seven. But he goes, you can't be over thirty, I said. It was a fellow journalist by the way, I said, Oh no, I'm I'm over thirty, all right, I'm over thirty. Uh. Anyway, I'm not gonna tell my kids to emulate every aspect of Trump's personality. Maybe I do need to work on a Trump impression. By the way, I don't know if you

guys ever want to hear a Trump impression. I feel like most of the Trump impressions that I come across, including from conservatives, are pretty lame, and I think that a lame Trump impression is something I really want to avoid.

But anyway, but when this singing broke out at at this at this rally in Missouri, and the Trump people are all gathered there, and you just saw this other side of it, which is that the Trump phenomenon, all these different Republicans, conservatives and people who even and voted for Obama before, people who aren't ideologically on the right, or at least not in a traditional conservative way. They want what's best for the country to you know that

we've been so force fed. Really two narratives. One is that Trump is this this vile ogre who's just mean and horrible and lies and yells. I meanwhile, have you spent five minutes around the guy. You like him. He's a likable guy. You get the sense that you know, he would be the he'd be like the dad who

after school if he wasn't a billionaire. You know, yeah, he might tell you to punch the bully in the nose, but you'd also you know, give you an out of boy pad on the back of the bully kicked your butt, you know what I mean. I mean, he's he's a guy's guy, and he's a pretty normal guy when it comes down to it in terms of his ability to relate to people. That's one narrative of the media doesn't

give you all the other one. Also, it's just that the Trump movement isn't just about Oh, it's building walls and ex looting people and so nasty and destructive and

divisive and hateful and racism, all this extreme negativity. Ultimately that the Trump voters that I know and the real Trump true beliers in the very beginning whether it's people who are at the very you know, top of the movement in terms of their voice and their platform, or just the folks that listen to this show, people that call it, people that I talk to, people that are emailing me and messaging me. They just want the country to do well and everybody in it to be doing well.

And they want a country that lets us be who we are and pursue our own destiny without too much just constriction from the government. I mean, you know, the government, the federal government really is like a giant boa constrictor that will just slowly squeeze not just your funds out of you, but also your ability to choose your own path, choose your own destiny. You know, tell the government to leave us alone. There's always going to be government around us.

There's this is always gonna be attention. There'll be a battle here. But the Trump voters want this country to be able to achieve its own greatness. And the way for this country to achieve its greatest position in the world is to let all of its individuals achieve as much as they can. And you know, there's also comfort and just being able to make choices. There's comfort in liberty. You know, this is something that really separates our society

from any others. Many places we think of as also conformist and strict and even totalitarian, and that's bad, and we know that that's contra human nature. But people embrace it more than you'd think. A lot of people take comfort and solace in the limitations on their decision making, in being told what to do and being forced into a certain framework. There's an ease with which you can embrace being told what to do, being told who you are.

America is special because we have the ability, we have the right, the god given right, to decide who each and every one of us are and will be as individuals. That is, that is the fundamental That is the the the foundational difference between US and many other polities, many other nation states, political organizations, countries, whatever, however you want

to separate them out. That's very important. And the Trump movement is fundamentally about doing what is right by and for the American people so that we can all benefit and prosper. And it's not supposed to be about just battling for the sake of battling. The reason we have a commander in chief now who clitically battles as hard as he does and is willing to fight fire with fire.

Is because for so long we have been on the losing end of approaching every political issue with first and foremost a desire to sound a certain way, to appear a certain way in the fight, instead of winning the fight. And if you think that winning the fight is going to make this country a better place for not just the million Americans now, but the generations to come, you have to be willing to fight hard. Doesn't mean that you don't sing amazing grace when it calls time for

that too. You've heard me talking about snippy dot com for a while now. Well, it is a rapidly growing new social media site and by the way, they're making changes all the time, updates and additions that you're going to love.

Snippy dot com new user interface. Stuff you'll love it. Also available on the Apple App Store and for Android. Snippy dot com. Ah. Yes, we've talked a bit about media bias today on the show.

It's an important thing. One of the obligations, i'd say, one of the primary fronts on which conservatives must fight, must continue the fight, is this notion that there is an unbiased media out there and it's all just fine, and conservatives are whining about this or they make a big deal out of nothing. And yet every day it seems there's yet another instance, another story, another thing that happens that just proves the media is even more left

wing in its bias than we had previously thought. Right, It just you just have more and more evidence of this that it is an overwhelming echo chamber of left wing sentiment, ideology and uh and emotions. And this is one of the This is one of the funnier ones that I've seen recently. So John James, who is a I believe a former fighter pilot. He is running for Michigan Michigan Senate and he's actually making a race of it.

You know, people aren't really spending a lot of time talking about this when we have an African American Republican former fighter pilot. I mean, this guy. Compare this guy for a moment in terms of his star appeal, and everything goes to Bato and you're like, Okay, Beato married rich and now wants to be a national politician along the lines of a John Carey like figure without even

John Carey's military service. Uh. John James is a butt kicking former fighter pilot, African American, very telegenic, very charismatic guy. Why have you not heard of him? I mean a lot of you have heard him, but you know what I mean, why have you not heard of him more? Why isn't this a bigger story? Well, this just goes

to the overall buyas. But this is classic, I mean, this is this is really one of these things where you know, you gotta just go through life now pretty much assuming if you're in an office at least probably at home too, but if you're in office that everything you say could get caught on a live mike, and

in this case it's a live telephone. So a reporter named Brenda Battle, who is a reporter for the Huron Daily Tribune, called on Monday to set up an interview with James after the midterm election so that they could, of course talked about what happened. Right, No one really knows in advance, but they want to set this up anyway. And it's just so funny because what you have here is the encapsulation of the liberal media. I know there's

just one reporter, but it's symbolic. It's emblematic of so many of these reporters in how they really think, how they cover things, and all the rest of it. And you know, she she starts, she's when she's leaving her message. This is on a voice mamber. This is a voicemail from this reporter to John James's campaign, trying to set up an interview with him. And she goes from like neutral reporter, lady voice to just what she really thinks, and you know, you the mask drops, you get to

see who we're really dealing with here. Uh and this voice mail, I think it's pretty hilarious. Please play clip three. Hi. My name is Blended Battle. I'm a reporter with the hear On Day A Tribune in Bad Acts, Michigan. Looking to set up an appointment with Mr James for some time on Wednesday for a phone interview regarding the election results. I'm probably gonna send an email over UM to the info at John James for Senate dot com with some details. UM. If you'd like to call me, Zack, my my number

is nine eight nine, Thank you. Man. If he beats her, Jesus John jeene W, that would suck. I don't think it's gonna happen, though. Man. If he beats your, I don't think it's gonna be happy. And I like Brandy Battle. I like she's so she's so Michigander, with the little with the Midwestern accident, you know, the whole thing. And if he beats your, I don't think it's gonna happen. Oh, Man, Brandon, what do you think? Man? I thought I thought it

was great. You know, she goes from Sweet Sweet, Michigander local news lady. He's like, oh, I just want to say up being interview with Gen James. To all of a sudden she switches into like, yeah, beep beep, you know he said all this mean stuff about him. You gotta be careful if those open mics are open phones, and just wait a moment, make sure you're hung up. Yeah, I mean, it's it's pretty funny. Um. I will say this. I heard today that I heard today that she was fired,

and I think that that's harsh. I don't think she should get It was an accident. I don't think that she should get fired. She didn't say Look, she didn't say anything like racist or terrible. She doesn't want the guy to win. I actually don't have a problem with that in the sense that I know that journalists are very opinionated and politically engaged. In fact, most journalists are really activists. They're not They shouldn't be described as journalists.

If you're gonna say that that's a neutral a neutral term, might I mean most journalists are very ideologically motivated. That's why they do what they do. So I have no problem with that. I think she should just come out and say, well, you know what, I want to be an opinion journalist now. I want to be honest about

where I happen. You know, people would say, oh, well, she can't do that, and that's her great and look, I know it's a bad look for the here on Daily Tribune, although honestly, this is the most national press that you're on Daily Tribute it has gotten ever probably, so it's you know, I think it's harsh to fire though, yeah, maybe you know, you suspend her a few days. I

I don't know if she was fired. I was told that today by a friend who's a reporter, So I don't I don't agree with that because what she said, you know, she thought she was off Mike. She didn't say any terrible so she doesn't like she doesn't like this candidate. Guess what. I don't like a lot of Democrat candidates that are running, including some that I've interviewed. Yeah, I shouldn't on an open mic say you know, bleep

and you bleep bleep. I hate that candidate, But it doesn't make me a bad It wouldn't make me a bad guy if I did so. I have kind of a different take on this than other people. But this then brings us back to a theme this hour on the show, which is they just need to be honest about this. The person who was saying, yeah, I just want to have any if you branded battle you know, well anythink that's gonna happen? Uh, you know, I don't think that she is in a position to be objective.

She should just say that I'm you know, Brenda Battle, Democrat journalist, and you know I'm covering things from that perspective. Why is that so anathemated people? She still has to use facts, She still has to, you know, report things accurately and truthfully, or else she'll have no credibility. So I believe in a total revamp of this. I think that the only the truth is I believe the only journalism is opinion journalism. We just need to come to

grips with that. That is reality. That doesn't necessarily mean advocacy journalism, that's even a little step beyond, but at least opinion journalism. Yes, who are you, what party are you affiliated with? Ideologically? Where are you honest? D on that, which is really just transparency when we're talking about the media. I think that would go a very very long way, and I'm an advocate of it. But anyway, yeah, bend your bad you always you know, what could he happen?

What could happen if she gets fired? Unfortunately, such an important thing, a vote is blood to his life. Just want so better for em and um feels good to be able to be able to say something and hope that's inside. Go out and vote now. I'm not going to make fun of somebody for getting emotional in that way about casting a vote. I mean, you know, it is a a beautiful thing that we have representative government

in this country. And one of the great advances in human political organization is in act the processes involving democratic elections. And of course we are in a republic. You don't have to send me those emails correcting me. You know what I'm saying. We have a democratic process in our republican form of government and or in our republic rather and you know, it's it's just that's Jennifer Esposito for those of you who might be wondering, and she is

a semi famous actress. If you've seen the if you've seen the movie Gosh What Crash, which actually won Best Picture, much to my surprise. About fifteen years ago she was in that and it was very attractive. I know about her more because no, not just because she's very attractive actress, although, but because she's Celiac. She has Celiac disease like me. And she actually runs a and owns a bakery in

Manhattan that has all all gluten free goods. But anyway, she was crying there because she just cast her vote and she's so hopeful for a change. And you know, this is where I have to step into kind of just normal buck the dude mode here and not not even really doing political analysis. Liberals really just need to calm down. It's it's gonna be okay. I think that people look and people can get very excited about their vote,

and they can get very excited about different policies. And but when you're crying tears of essentially sadness and terror as you go into the voting booth, that's not good. Because everything really is okay. And this is a conversation that I have to have with my many liberal friends. I mean, I have I know a lot of Libs.

Fortunately my immediate circle are stalwart conservatives, but I have a lot of Libs in my life, and I and many of them am very very fond of and I try to tell them or I try to lane to them. You know what you're getting from these different media sources. Look around you in your day to day life. Do you have friends and family members who are being drafted to go fight in a uh, you know, a horrific meat grinder of a foreign war. No. Do we have

a pandemic of disease like Spanish influenza. No. Do we have a massive recession with millions tens of millions of people losing their homes, or the unemployment line stretching in the block. No, those are all real things that happen in history. By the way, two people in living memory, None of that is happening right now. Things in this country are really good. And I would offer that we are in a more positive place in our day to day lives as Americans now with Trump as president than

we were in the Obama era. That said, there's nothing that is going on right now that should make liberals freak out so much. You know that there's And I asked them too, and they always point to rhetoric. Oh, Trump's rhetoric and what he said here and what he said there, and my response to that tends to be what does that really do for you? Work to you? The answer is nothing. You know, Trump's tweets should not

be haunting these people's dreams. I really worry that there's a a mass hysteria on the left, and when people become hysterical in this way, their judgment is clouded and it's really hard to find common ground and to trust their thought processes on on important issues. So, you know, Jennifer Esposito there her a little clip went viral, This actress who's crying because she voted. I just want to say, Okay, if you want to cry happy tears because we live

in such a beautiful, amazing country, that's great. I'm all for it. But if you're crying because you think this is your last chance to stop America from falling into Trump's fascism and he's basically hitler, I really mean this from the bottom of my heart. Get a grip, Libs, get a grip liberty, truth and great hair. Feel those funky beats. It's time for roll call. Election day. Roll call is the best roll call, well, really, every day is the best roll call. Team always good to hear

from your Facebook dot com slash buck Sexton. That is how you get this party started. Let's get right to it, Alan, But I have to say that having Hannity and Piro on stage with Trump is really bad optics for Fox News. Hard to criticize CNN when you have Fox personalities stumping for Trump. Well, Alan, I appreciate you're trying to be fair minded, but the truth is, I think that your

distinction is is lacking some some context here. Uh, Hannity and Piro are both open conservative opinion journalists or or pundits. CNN pretends that their anchors, their prime time anchors in particular, are objective, neutral, nonpartisan journalist Anderson Cooper, Jake Tapper, Don Lemon, Aaron Burnett, and Chris Cuomo. That's laughable. They're all Democrats. They're all operating as an appendage, a media appendage of the d n C. Always. That doesn't mean they can't

ask normal questions. But I also am a partisan, but I can ask normal questions, right, So I have issues with the GOP, I criticize Republicans, I disagree with them on different matters of policy, doesn't mean I'm not a partisan. It doesn't mean that I don't approach this without an ideology. CNN is fundamentally dishonest about what it does and where it's people come down on these issues. Fox News is not. Now. Look, everyone, even if you're trying to be the most neutral, impartial

journalists ever, you're gonna have some crossover. You're gonna have some sense that you know, your your opinions are gonna come through a little bit of your work. But it's not a little bit at CNN. It's a lot. Uh, And I just think that people should be honest about it. You can say, hey, I'm a Democrat journalist, but I really have a reputation for being fair minded, for presenting the facts and the truth and not trying to skew news narratives to serve a partisan agenda. So you know,

there's a lot of nuance here. Just understand this way though, the idea and I actually got into a little Twitter dispute with some Daily Beast reporter today about this, The idea that a journalist is a neutral, nonpartisan profession. This is really a mid to late twentieth century American invention. This is new, This is not This doesn't exist in

the rest of the world. It doesn't exist in the UK, for example, where we derive a lot of our journalistic practices and the notion of the free press and all of these ideas. Would it come to us, not just from Europe and more specifically from Great Britain and there. If there's a Tory paper, there's a liberal paper. You know, left right people understand this. It's just much more transparent, it's much more honest. You know, I'm a conservative, and

I'm pretty I'm pretty hardcore. I mean, there are very few areas where I think you'd find me deviating from conservative ideology. I mean there are a few. I like smoking bands and restaurants for example. You know, there are some things where I admit that my little, my little inner status comes out. Um and you know, I sometimes some of the nanny state stuff, I'd start to think, is I know you're booing me right now. You can

boo me, That's okay. But you know, I may be thinking that soda being less than sixty four ounces is not the word. It's not the government's business. I know that I understand what but I'm just saying I have a ideologically. Sometimes I see it happens you find areas where you really like something and you are reminded. And now these are small areas obviously, but your reminded of Oh even I like to be sometimes a little bit of a big government totalitarian. But anyway, the CNN Fox

distinction is Fox News. Anybody is willing to say, who's being honest that it excuse to the right, and it is a conservative leaning network. That doesn't mean all of its journals. I mean Shepherd Smith is not a conservative at all. I mean Shepherd Smith. You could take his show and put it on CNN and it wouldn't even be out of place. Right, Keep in mind, there's no

equivalent at CNN. There is no show that is in their daily lineup at CNN that you could put on air at Fox News and you wouldn't say, Wow, this is like the pro Lary, pro Obama network. Uh. So you know, when you line these things up, it's more apparent. MSNBC is really the equivalent for Fox. MSNBC is a place that I think everyone at least is willing to admit is left leaning, is pro Democrat. You know, he's not calling balls and strikes and all this other nonsense

that they say. As you see Alan, this gets me fired up. That's why I've spent quite a bit of time talking about your one message here. But I appreciate that said Fox News did censure Sewn or you know, not censoring, but you know it's Fox News did say that they don't like when their anchors do that. But he's not pretending to be neutral. And also, you guys

know my rule applies here. I mean, I I oh a a debt of gratitude to Shaun for letting me in the early days of my career filling on his radio show, and also just for him being a great guy who's really honest and supportive and cool. So you know, he's not somebody that you're gonna hear me criticizing. Uh. And you know Fox News, they they can say whatever they want about their anchors activities. I think what Sean does is totally transparent, and I have no no issue

with any even at all. The same thing with Judge nine, whom I always have a certain fondness for it too. I just think she's so feisty. I like Judge. She really lays it, she really lays it down. Sadly, you here end up murdering the children of Americans. You know what's united sary? See what I mean, feisty. Remember that that was on the view That was good time. Adam rights if Republican sweep is the M s M is

smart enough to stop bashing Trump. No, no, Adam, you have to remember the M s M is not trying to be The mainstream media does not aspire to be even handed and fair. They just say that to pander to their audience of left wing viewers who like to think that their worldview is in fact the objective worldview. But that is not true. That is not the case, so they will not stop ashing Trump. In fact, it's been good for CNNs ratings to cover all Trump all

the time. They've been very open about that. I guess because they can't hide it, and because they've got to tell advertisers. They want to tell advertisers they can make more money. Nicole writes, Hey, Buck, yesterday you played a clip where Pelosi talked about knowing how to take a punch. Trigger warning. The dude with the valley girl accent you can hear in the recordings does not sound like he could take a punch, and the effort involved with taking

James writes Buck love your show, Love what you do for American patriots. But I have one complaint. Pointing out the lies, deceits, and wrongs the Democrats is great, but how about some ideas to counter their deceptions and wrongdoing. Well, you know, James,
